Comprehensive Snow Management Services unique to Franklin County ME
Lets Numbers Talk
Our Snow Removal Services In Franklin County ME
We offer comprehensive snow removal services in Franklin County ME. Here are some of the services we offer:
High-Volume Parking Lot Plowing
Our fleet is equipped for high-volume snow removal. We do not simply push snow to the side; we assess your property to determine the most efficient stacking locations that protect vehicle areas and keep lanes clear. Utilizing heavy loaders and skid steers for tight corners, we ensure critical spots remain open.
Our methodology includes:
- Pre-Season Site Mapping: We locate curbs, hydrants, and drainage inputs before the snow arrives to prevent infrastructure damage.
- Trigger-Based Deployment: Flexible plans allow you to choose snow limits (e.g., 1 inch, 2 inches) for immediate action.
Traffic Flow Maintenance: We prioritize main distinct thoroughfares and critical access routes to ensure emergency vehicles and customers have unimpeded access.
Protecting Your Home and Family
A snowed-in driveway or a roof with excessive accumulation is a frequent local issue, but it is not inevitable. ABC SNOW brings the top-tier service used in our large-scale operations to your property. Unlike independent truck services, we are a fully licensed and insured entity, providing peace of mind.
Snow removal is only half the battle; de-icing is where safety is truly determined. Standard rock salt often loses efficacy in severe cold. ABC SNOW applies controlled salt applicators and high-performance treatments tailored to current temperature metrics.
We utilize a combination solid and liquid applications:
- Magnesium Chloride: Effective at lower temperatures, gentle on hardscapes.
- Treated Salt Blends: Enhances safety while the chemical reaction melts the ice bond.
Liquid Brine Pre-treatment: We can apply anti-icing liquid before the storm hits, preventing the snow from bonding.
Precision Driveway Plowing
We use equipment appropriate for residential spacing. While we have heavy loaders for long lanes, we also utilize nimble plow trucks and snow blowers for standard driveways to prevent turf damage.
Our technicians are trained to back-drag snow away from garage doors effectively, ensuring you arent left with substantial piles. We also offer driveway mapping, protecting your landscaping and hardscaping.
Critical Service: Roof Raking and Snow Load Management
In Franklin County ME, snow load is a structural threat. As snow accumulates, compresses, and absorbs rain or ambient humidity, its density increases.
If the structural limits are surpassed, damage may result.
- Physics of Snow Load: The snow load is determined by the area (A), depth of the snow (D), and density of the snow ().
- Soft snow is lighter, but compacted, wet Franklin County ME snow can exceed 20+ pounds per cubic foot.
- Even a moderate accumulation can overload structures.
ABC SNOW provides specialized roof raking services. We do not use damaging picks or axes. Instead, we utilize gentle equipment and, for flat commercial roofs, snow blowers to relieve structural pressure without damaging shingles or membranes.
This service is essential for roof safetyfrozen barriers that prevent melting snow from draining off. Ice dams can lead to interior damage.
